    Re: My Hair!!!

    Biotin only helps oil get absorbed. When we diet like this we eat much less oil & fat then ever before and that can cause hair loss. Iron also can be low. Iron and fish oil are really essential if...

    Re: What if husband's not supportive?

    Re: What if husband's not supportive?

    I especially agree and love what Niamh said. I would go further to say that when he has his tantrums get out of there! Go far a walk, go for a car ride, don't respond or give him your energy &...

    Re: Upset Tummy ALL THE TIME

    Me too! Candida is caused from sugary/carby foods which knock out your good gut flora (funny how it all works together). Candida is too much sugar in the diet giving you bad bacteria, slowing your...

    Re: Upset Tummy ALL THE TIME

    Hi Dacia, I'd take probiotics to start with. 70% of your immune system and most kinds of heartburn are directly related to your gut flora and with a change in your diet and surgery as well you might...

    Re: sadden because I have not lost any weight

    By your ticker it's obvious you've made a dent in your weight. I went through a big long stall after three months of steady losing and now my weight loss is much slower than ever before.

    Re: hair

    Biotin simply helps your body absorb omega 3 oils. Your hair is falling out because you're new diet is likely short in these healthy fats as well as iron. I'm taking folic acid, salmon oil, and...
